Mango sticky rice: sweet dessert made with fresh fruit and coconut-flavored rice
This is generally a seasonal dish, when mangoes are freely available. It’s definitely a dessert, since it’s got sweetened rice and ripe mangoes. It’s a nice combo because you’ve got the soft chewiness of the sticky rice paired with juicy fruit. I also like the coconut flavoring of the milk, which gives it a tropical taste. Here’s a recipe to make mango sticky rice at home.
Fun fact: In Malaysia, they have a similar dish–but with durian!
